The idea of this piece was not ot dwell on politcal issues, but to point out an environmental issue. What goes on with fishing vessels and trawlers is often not reported; and most likely undesirable fish are thrown back from them as well. This is one reason why less fish are now being seen in the oceans.

With all due respect Maurice, these Algerian influenced NGOs are all about exploiting and fabricating stories for political capital; you might genuinely care about the exploitation of fish, but the sentiment certainly isn’t shared by some of your sources. I am supposed to seriously take at their word the allegations made by WSRW in the video, when they’ve already laid numerous false charges? Can they proved actual evidence this video of fish dumping is occurring off the Moroccan sahara or any other part of Morocco; fishing dumping (only recently banned in the EU) is so common in the industry this could be anywhere on earth! Furthermore, Morocco takes strict measures (following national schemes such as the Halieutis Plan and the Biological Rest program) to protect its fish stocks. Thank you.

The video is a complete sham. For such grand accusations it doesn’t even provide a shred of evidence. On top of that Morocco is not illegally occupying the sahara as the video incorrectly asserts which casts even more doubt over the videos integrity and its other baseless claims.
